Nor Canada. Many US websites believe the Internets are only in the US and that if we see what they are doing we have somehow cheated them out of copyright revenue that they would never earn anyway.

Half true. They sell broadcast rights to region specific stations, like The Comedy Network here in Canada, and it seems that these days those rights include streaming internet video.

Fortunately, stations like The Comedy Network have their own website with the blocked content open to Canadian visitors. The downside though is that they usually don't have the same clips that the US sites have, so something like this clip would only be available on The Comedy Network's website as part of a complete episode, instead of the abridged clip.

You think Canada has it bad? In Germany we have these assholes called GEMA, some independant firm that block anything it percieves as copyright infringement or might take revenue away...even if the creator of the content wants it to be seen.

Tyrion's Favorite Wench:I've already seen season 3. I'll feel sorry for you suckers who haven't yet. Pirating is awesome. I'd make spoilery comments but I'm not an ass.

I'm sad that my favorite Downton character (no spoilers for non-pirates) got written out of the show, and unlike the other actors/actresses that left (the red-haired maid and newspaper-owner guy) won't be reappearing on Game of Thrones.
